PNG illustrating "Th" ligature controle for Graphite and OpenType

I'm aware that additional comments from simple users rather than coders does
nothing to move this enhancement request forward (I see comment #42! ;)

Still, it's worth noting that OpenType support is the most upvoted Q&A on
AskLibreoffice, a community which seems fairly congenitally predisposed against
voting on anything:

http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/questions/scope:all/sort:votes-desc/page:1/

That's worth noting, especially in light of an early comment (#2):

The latter question is fairly easy to answer, in fact: it would benefit every
single user of LibreOffice Writer. I make good use of the Graphite enabled
version of Linux Libertine, but it would be so, so good to be able to have
similar control over the much wider range of Open Type fonts available. I
attach a PNG illustrating one specific use case.

Will continue to hope that this enhancement comes through sooner rather than
later (is the GSoC territory?)!
